circulates the hot fluid around the system

The hot fluid is pumped around the coil at the bottom of the twin coil cylinder and heats the potable (or mains) water held within the cylinder for domestic use.

If the temperature sensor in the cylinder detects that the solar panel hasn’t collected enough energy to heat the hot water to the required temperature, that’s when the boiler will fire up, heat the top coil of the cylinder and top up the temperature of the hot water so that it comes out of your taps at the temperature needed.

The solar controller is the brains of the operation, managing the solar system during daylight hours, enabling you to time your hot water, just like a heating programmer, and measure the amount of energy you have gained from the sun.

Glow-worm Clearly Solar Systems

Designed for use on UK homes, Clearly Solar has everything you need to look for in a flat plate solar thermal solution.

with all new and existing open vent and sealed system boilers (including the complete Glow-worm range) or immersion heaters in non-gas areas. Glow-worm Clearly Solar will deliver an average of 50 to 60% of your annual domestic hot water needs.

Robust, hard wearing and high performance flat plates delivering excellent levels of efficiency, lots of flexibility in installation and a sleek and subtle design of all components on the roof and inside the house, plus advanced controls that ensure you squeeze every last drop of energy from the sun.

Clearly Solar is a pressurised system, meaning that it is completely full of heat transfer fluid and sealed from the atmosphere (a similar concept to a sealed heating system). Fully compatible On-roof installation

In-roof installation

Made of brushed aluminium with a neat design that subtly fits with the roof, Clearly Solar flat plates can be installed both in-roof and on-roof, horizontally or vertically, or fixed to A-frames and mounted on a flat roof or in a garden.

We also provide a range of Clearly Solar accessories to give you flexibility of installation. This includes a variety of fixing brackets to suit all types of roof tiles including concrete, slate and clay peg and tools to help you out on the job including, harnesses, carrying handles and filling pump.

Glow-worm Clearly Solar is the straight forward solar thermal solution perfect for the needs of UK homes

Clearly Solar Systems | Key Components Flurosorb Flat Plates The Flurosorb flat plate (part of the Clearly Solar system) gives you, high efficiencies from a large absorber area of 2.02m2, robust construction from toughened glass and ultrasonic welding, whilst the slim line frame gives it a total footprint of just 2.24m2 and at 43kg it is one of the lightest flat plates on the market.

Flurosorb flat plates can be installed both in-roof and on-roof, horizontally or vertically, or fixed to A-frames and mounted on a flat roof or in a garden. The neat design subtly fits in with the roof and low protrusion making it well within the threshold normally required for planning permission. Construction:

Performance:

• Brushed aluminium frame

• Leading performance flat plate collector

• Grid absorber made of copper

• Collector efficiency

• Solar glass thickness 4mm (tough and resistant to vandalism)

• Light transmission 91%

• Absorber ultrasonically welded and not soldered, suitable for

• Solar radiation absorption 95%

high temperature • High selective absorber coating Dimensions: • Dimensions 1.16x1.93m • Gross collector area 2.24m2 • Absorber surface areas 2.02m2 • Low flat plate weight only 43kg • Total depth 110mm achieving low protrusion

81.8%

• Solar radiation emission 5% • Shutdown temperature 196ºC • 60mm insulation for improved efficiency • 10 year warranty Fixing: • Horizontal and vertical orientation possible • Mounting accessories for pitched roofs (On-roof and in-roof) • A-frame for flat roofs

Fluropro Controller • Differential temperature control The Fluropro controller (part of the Clearly Solar system) is the real brains of the operation, simple to use with a boiler domestic hot water programmer and solar gain display to show how much energy has been collected from the sun since the system began operating. Intelligent functionality in the controller holds off the

boiler whenever there is solar gain to be had making fuel usage as low as possible.

• Programmable boiler & auxiliary channels • Easy wiring connections • Solar gain modulation • Boiler heating delay function (similar to optimum start)

Flurocyl Twin Coil Cylinder Unvented, stainless steel and narrow enough to fit through any standard airing cupboard door, the Flurocyl twin coil cylinder (part of the Clearly Solar system) is a cylinder for all seasons.

To ensure that every last bit of the suns energy is used, the solar gain modulation (working with the controller and pump station) steadily pulses the solar fluid into the bottom coil of the cylinder, evenly heating the domestic hot water and ensuring that the boiler does not fire up until it really needs to.

The special construction of the coils inside the Flurocyl cylinder, ensures that the top coil will reliably heat the top 2/3 of the cylinder delivering high volumes of hot water during winter months when there is less solar energy.

The Flurocyl cylinder is supplied with a thermostatic mixing valve to mix cold water into the solar heated water as required and 3 thermal cut outs for the boiler, immersion and solar, all fully integrated and approved.

• Twin coil Flurocyl cylinder fully compatible with all open vent and sealed systems, including the full range of Glow-worm boilers

• Insulation meets CHeSS best practice (loss as low as 1.9kWh) • 25 year warrantee in cylinder shell • 554mm width for flexible siting • 3kW immersion heater as standard • 3 thermal cut outs (boiler, immersion and solar) • Supplied with a carrying handle for easy of transportation

• Available in 200, 250 and 300 litres • High grade stainless steel cylinder with laser welded seams

Because heat naturally rises the pump station is fitted with 2 check valves which stops circulation of the solar fluid when the pump is not running, forcing the heat to stay in the cylinder rather than transferring back into the flat plate, increasing system efficiency.

Room temperature is kept totally constant with a Glow-worm control

Climapro RF. This range of intelligent controls is totally compatible for use with the Ultracom cxi and very easy to install.

The Climastat is a room stat which controls temperature and the Climapro and Climapro RF are programmable room thermostats which have two channels enabling your customer to set their hot water and central heating to come on either together or at totally different times of the day, 7 days a week.

All Glow-worm controls are intelligent. This means that they talk to the Ultracom cxi adding an extra level of intelligence to the modulation built into the boilers. This advanced level of intelligent modulation keeps the room temperature totally constant,

The Climastat, Climapro and Climapro RF all operate on low voltage and have simple wiring connections so there is no worry about Part P compliance when installing a Glow-worm controller with an Ultracom cxi.

The simple piping kit fits neatly onto the horizontal flue of any Glow-worm high efficiency boiler installed in the UK. The kit enables the plume to be exhausted further away from the flue duct, reducing the visual impact of the vapour trail.

The Plume Management Kit can also be used to overcome many more site issues. The kit can be extended to a maximum of 6m in length and can be directed around ledges and other obstacles

The Flexicom Range of High Efficiency Condensing Boilers

Glow-worm Flexicom Flexible and Compact To replace an old boiler or install a new one with the minimum of fuss, you need a boiler that will fit just about anywhere. That’s why Glow-worm created the Flexicom.

NEW!

Optional ‘glide down’ plug in timer Available for the Flexicom cx

The Flexicom has a direct rear flue and is so compact it fits inside a standard kitchen cupboard. The Flexicom gives you loads of siting flexibility, particularly useful when replacing a standard efficiency boiler with an existing direct rear flue or if space is a premium in the property you are working in.

The pull-out electrical connection block means that you don’t have to remove the front case during installation and the pre-fixing jig, upward piping frame and technical back-up provided by Glow-worm, should you ever need it, are all designed to make installation as easy as we can for you.

Available as a Combi, Open Vent or Sealed System boiler with a wide range of outputs, the Flexicom has the best possible rating for energy efficiency being SEDBUK A rated with a NOx class 5 rating and recommended by the Energy Saving Trust.

Amazingly flexible Available with a direct rear flue option

Surprisingly compact So small, it can fit inside a kitchen wall cupboard

NEW Flexicom ‘glide down’ plug in timer A brand new development for the Flexicom cx is the simple but effective plug in timer. One simple push and the clock glides in to position. Set the time to your requirements and another gentle push hides the clock from view inside the base of the boiler. The Flexicom clock accessory simply clips in to this imaginatively designed, glide down casing and there is no need to remove the case to fit it. An optional extra on all Flexicom cx models, it

The adaptable inbuilt programmer provides 7 day or 24-hour, single or two channel control for the central heating and hot water pre-heat function. The simple push button controls, cut & paste and advance functionality mean that it takes seconds to set and alter any programmes, providing the homeowner with as much or as little flexibility as they need.
